Day 2819: Pastrami at 4 am.

"Free Spirit": junk mail collage, acrylics, marker on w/c paper, postcard.

I had an acrylic background on a large sheet of w/c paper.

Just large brushstrokes & lines of colors I rarely use.

I folded then tore it into 12 postcard pieces.

So here is the step-by-step for Free Spirit.

As yucky as I was yesterday, today I ZOOM-ed.

I don't know if it's because I ate a pastrami sandwich at 4:00 am? 

I woke at 4 am & was hungry. WW had brought it on Monday.

Then I went back to sleep! About 9:30 Libby, superstar-artist, 

and friend called wanting to do a zoom hook-up with all

 of our Eastside members. I had never used that app, 

but we almost all eventually got on.

 

We eventually had 7 on, 1 who could see us, we could hear her on Libby's speaker phone.  We were are so glad to see each other.

I switched the group to the big screen, we are all newbies.

We decided to meet each Tuesday at 9:30 am. Fun! 

 I had a to-do list and marked off some. TMI alert.

My Honda wouldn't turn over so I called AAA 
and then I drove it around for 45 minutes. 
The tv in the studio and living room stopped working, 
just noisy static, so that meant a call to Cox Cable. ;op

Never fun, 35 minutes waiting to get a human, 
all the while punishing elevator music, 
when I finally got someone, the line was choppy 
and I couldn't understand him, so asked him to call me back, 
he didn't. I called again waiting 25 more minutes 
before I got Gladys in New Orleans. 
She was very nice and rebooted both tv's. 
TMI? Yeah, but I got things done!

2GN2S:

The artist Rob Cottingham, @robcottingham, 

made patches to reward ourselves during the containment. 

I enjoyed his humor and thought you might too? 

I just added color to the original black and white drawing.

I'd love to tell you this was from my phone today @ 2:16 PM

but you'd know better, so I borrowed WW's phone.

Smiles for Wednesday ...
